NannerPuss:My boss and a coworker were talking about all the guns they were going to buy in the next week if Obama gets re-elected because soon it would be illegal to buy them. Then they fantasized about all the killing they'd do when "they come for our guns".

I normally love and respect these people, but something about politics turns people into brainless goobers.

I hear this on a regular basis.Normally my friends are just low grade crazy, but politics takes them up several orders of magnitude.

ami5000:Silly Jesus: 1. Woman on phone at the grocery store. - "Christ is still the King and he has a plan for us. He will cast his vote."2. Woman behind me in line to vote. - "Votin' is important. I gots to keep my check a comin'."

Guess who each voted for?

I still can't believe that we still allow ignorant / low information / outright retarded people to vote. Hell, a first grade math test would have likely thrown these two wastes of air out of the process.

If we stopped ignorant/low information/outright retarded people from voting then you wouldn't be able to vote and that seems like a shame.

Its amazing that everyone is biatching about the derp from the right but ignoring the derp on the left about how mitt is evil rich, when a co worker said that earlier I just asked who among to dems are poor, most are richer than you will ever dream of being.

The derp is strong on both sides, but it doesnt matter since both sides are out to fark us, that fact is only obvious to those on the right who distrust their party but still hate the left for their bullshiat.

Believing in honest politicians is like believing in god, there is never proof on either one but people just cling to their chosen side.

The place I work at is also a polling place. It was very busy all day but one comment that was made stood out. The voter stated that they heard on the radio if you vote a straight Democratic ticket it does not count the vote for Obama. When asked if it changed the vote to Romney she said no it just didn't register a vote for anyone in the presidential race.

While it may have kept those two out, crazy cuts across 'plain ol dumb' lines.

I have an uncle. Chemistry degree. Flew nuclear-armed B-52s for the USAF for 20 years.

Also, not just right-wing... actually sees Jesus. Believes in numerology . Sends me DVDs of people drawing diagonal lines around parts of the Greek New Testament that proves that Putin is the antichrist.

"We are so close to kicking the muslims and communists out of the White House and Congress...WE CAN DO IT!!! Have them ALL brought up on charges of treason and high crimes!"

"Remember and never forget, obama in his own words said, "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction." He has proven it. VOTE HIM OUT then have him arrested & charged with the murders of 4 Americans in Libya and 13 in Ft. Hood."

"If any of my conservative FB friends have XXXX as a friend, you need to seriously talk with this young man about how the muslims are here to destroy us, and their leader is obama."

1) I did it for my daughters.2) You can't call yourself a Christian if you vote for the guy who wants to help the rich instead of increase government assistance for the poor.3) If you vote for Romney, you hate gays.4) I woke up early today, scared, and got to the polls as soon as I could.

And my personal favorite:

Voting for third party candidates is for the smug and stupid. At least I was drinking heavily back when I voted for Ross Perot.

Totally, 100%, certifiable. But smart.

Simple solution. Add "Do you believe that anyone alive currently is the antichrist." If they answer yes...yoink.

An entire generation raised on TV and conditioned to suck whatever cock the Zionist puts in his face.

dmax:My mom, quietly: "I hope Romney wins. You know, Obama is a Muslim. He wears that ring that proves he is.And, anyway, I'd rather have a Christian in the White House."

So I sent her links to Snopes, debunking the ring thing, and a link to how Mormon beliefs differ from "mainstream" christianity.

She replied (nicely!) with an email "proving" that Snopes was funded by Obama because of some stuff with Kagan.

I sent her back this, and then we stopped trading emails.

/never argued more than that with her, my entire life//adopted and met her ten years ago for the first time///csb

Last election, I was in our local low-grade food shopping center, and was looking at coffee. Hillbilly man remarks to hillbilly wife in passing "I'm not buying any of that coffee! That's arab ica coffee!". True story.

My father is a staunch conservative. I'm as liberal as can be. We lead a happy existence together because he hates talking politics. More important to him to talk about good books, good restaurants, his grandchildren, etc. I am so grateful for that when I read threads like this.
